Requested move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved to Ellen (season 1). Will move the other seasons as well. -- JHunterJ (talk) 12:27, 13 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of Ellen episodes (season 1) → ? – Either Ellen (season 1) or These Friends of Mine (season 1). ~~--George Ho (talk) 03:49, 1 July 2012 (UTC)~~ For rationale, the original title was These Friends of Mine in first season. Afterwards, it became Ellen. However, Ellen is ambiguous, and, although this is the only show with the same name, there could be another show Ellen. Moreover, I wonder if Ellen (TV series) (season 1) must be the title. --Relisted Mdann52 (talk) 05:50, 12 July 2012 (UTC) --George Ho (talk) 06:05, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose due to lack of reason for the move and that the other seasons are not nominated. Armbrust, B.Ed. ^{WrestleMania XXVIII} _{The Undertaker 20–0} 05:57, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have not yet nominated other seasons because I don't know if I must add "(TV series)" in proposal. I have added rationale for you --George Ho (talk) 06:05, 8 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support move to Ellen (season 1) (and similar for the other seasons of the show). AFAIK this is the standard convention for TV season articles. To address the These Friends of Mine issue: we seem to accept that it's the same show, with a different title; there's no evidence here that other sources consider the first season of the sitcom to be a show called TFOM, and that the second season of the sitcom would actually be the first season of a different show called Ellen. It's a single show that's inarguably better known as Ellen. There's no harm in a redirect from These Friends of Mine (season 1), although I think it's very unlikely to ever get used. I don't understand the concerns about ambiguity. Theoldsparkle (talk) 14:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
